But what's happened?... Jaz's Introduction: Hello everyone and welcome to the Protrusive Dental podcast, it's Jaz Gulati here. Today, I've got Stephen Hudson on the show, we've been talking all things about like consent forms, notetaking, how not to get sued, the relevance of Montgomery, Who the hell is Montgomery? You'll find out today, like I did, I thought Montgomery was a guy, right? It's actually a woman. So there we are. I've noticed that actually, a lot of my listeners are starting to message me with recommendations for who they think that should come on the show next, and I'm actually loving it. So please, if you've got any suggestions for topics, I'd love to hear it, I've got a good list of speakers coming up and guests on the show lined up for you. But if you think something would be beneficial to the audience, then please come with the suggestions. Before we dive into the episode I will give you the Protrusive Dental pearl for today. And that is going to be a gift to you guys. It is my custom screen for taking comprehensive examination notes. So for my new patient examination, I try and make it fairly comprehensive. It's not ott it's pretty detailed. And you know, you can fit in what you want. But basically the the benefit of a custom screen, if you never heard of a custom screen is on Exact, Software of Excellence , Exact. You can actually have a way of collecting notes where instead of having to have like a template where you're adding and deleting stuff, I've converted it into like tick boxes and drop downs. So it actually makes it really easy for your nurse to follow what you're doing. And like for example, molar classification, you can just drop down click class two whatever, you can select your sort of incisor classification, you can have the BP code within the custom screen, you can take where the radiograph is grade one, two, or three on page two of the custom screen. So basically, custom screen is a fantastic way of collecting notes efficiently. And also notes of very good quality. So I'm going to share with you my custom screen, the story of how I got to make my custom screen was basically I was a bit poorly last Christmas. Basically I hate doing nothing right? So I was in bed, I was super sick. So what the hell can I do anything I can move. So I got my laptop, open our log into exact. And I was able to bust out for hours and make this custom screen. So I know I worked really hard on this custom screen. But it's not perfect.
